Gear Up FEMA, Hurricane Coronavirus Is Headed Your Way!

This is the BIG ONE!

Once the coronavirus tsunami washes over the entire nation, the key issue will be that the nation is out of medical resources. FEMA will be in the middle of the fight trying to coordinate the movement of personnel and supplies to those that need them the most. The big problem is that everyone is going to want them, and there won't be enough to go around. 

The fight for those resources will be a political knife fight between governors, each seeking critical items and people for their states. 

Here is my Pandemic COVID-19 Forecast: Things are going go from not so bad, to bad, to worse, then terrible, with horrible, soon to be followed by uncontrollable maelstrom. Beware the virus! 

If we dodge this bullet, we are either Neo from The Matrix or one lucky nation.
